<p dir="auto">I has a question about the license of gnutls, I'm not sure whether it is a bug.</p>
<h2 dir="auto">
<a id="user-content-in-gnutls-3613license-the-content-is-as-following" class="anchor" href="#in-gnutls-3613license-the-content-is-as-following" aria-hidden="true"></a>In gnutls-3.6.13/LICENSE, the content is as following:</h2>
<h1 dir="auto">
<a id="user-content-licensing" class="anchor" href="#licensing" aria-hidden="true"></a>LICENSING</h1>
<p dir="auto">Since GnuTLS version 3.1.10, the core library is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) version 2.1 or later (see doc/COPYING.LESSER for the license terms).</p>
<h2 dir="auto">
<a id="user-content-the-gnu-lgpl-applies-to-the-main-gnutls-library-while-the-included-applications-as-well-as-gnutls-openssl-library-are-under-the-gnu-gpl-version-3-the-gnutls-library-is-located-in-the-lib-and-libdane-directories-while-the-applications-in-src-and-the-gnutls-openssl-library-is-at-extra" class="anchor" href="#the-gnu-lgpl-applies-to-the-main-gnutls-library-while-the-included-applications-as-well-as-gnutls-openssl-library-are-under-the-gnu-gpl-version-3-the-gnutls-library-is-located-in-the-lib-and-libdane-directories-while-the-applications-in-src-and-the-gnutls-openssl-library-is-at-extra" aria-hidden="true"></a>The GNU LGPL applies to the main GnuTLS library, while the included applications as well as gnutls-openssl library are under the GNU GPL version 3. The gnutls library is located in the lib/ and libdane/ directories, while the applications in src/ and, the gnutls-openssl library is at extra/.
......</h2>
<p dir="auto">I think it means that all the license in lib/ is under the license of LGPL-2.1+.
But I found that the license of lib/x509/krb5.h and lib/x509/krb5.c is GPL-3.0+. Obviously, it is inconsistent with the LICENSE file.</p>
<p dir="auto">So, I don't know whether it is a bug or I got it wrong.</p>
